Tabbouleh Salad

This is the last but not least of the sides that goes great with the earlier Kibbe ball recipe. This is a healthy, tangy side that is one of the most popular middle eastern salads on the planet. Also a great dish for you RAW foodies!

Tabbouleh

1/2 C Fine grain bulgur
2 Lemons (juice and pulp)
1 1/2 C Finely chopped fresh mint leaves
2 C Finely chopped tomatoes
1/2 C Finely chopped scallions
3 C Finely chopped parsley
1 t Salt
1/2 t Pepper
1/2 t Allspice
1/2 C Finely chopped red onion
3/4 C Olive oil

Rinse bulgur and cover with 3 C water and let soak for 30 minutes, drain and squeeze out excess water. In a large bowl, combine the all ingredients and stir, add more salt and pepper as needed. Refrigerate until ready to serve.

Serve with Kibbe balls, falafel and hummus or whatever pleases you!
